Very Simple Kite

Step 6: Go and Fly Your Kite!

Find somewhere with a decent steady breeze free from things that could get in the way, be damaged or injure you (including people, expensive vases, powerlines, trees). Release your kite with one hand while holding the string in the other. Your kite should take off!

Enjoy!

I'd love to see your kite! Please feel free to post pictures of your kite in the comments. Go on, show off your awesome decorating skills!

how far is it in the air in those photos?

[Verdantic]

About a metre and a half, I think. It tends to hover between about half a metre and two metres off the ground. It depends on where you attach the string in step five, but I couldn't tell you the optimum. It also stays higher in a lighter breeze. It does have a peculiar manner of flight compared to a more typical kite.
